Description
Blender 3D model.

Rosetta is a robotic space probe built and launched by the European Space Agency to perform a detailed study of comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko. On 6 August 2014 it approached the comet to a distance of about 100 km (62 mi) and reduced its relative velocity to 1 m/s (3.3 ft/s), thus becoming the first spacecraft to rendezvous with a comet (previous missions had conducted successful flybys of seven other comets). Following further manoeuvres, it will enter orbit after approaching to 30 km (19 mi) five weeks later. It is part of the ESA Horizon 2000 cornerstone missions and is the first mission designed to both orbit and land on a comet. It has been estimated that in the decade preceding 2014, some 2,000 people had assisted in the mission in some capacity.

Rosetta was launched on 2 March 2004 on an Ariane 5 rocket and reached the comet on 6 August 2014. The spacecraft consists of two main elements: the Rosetta space probe orbiter, which features 12 instruments, and the Philae robotic lander, with an additional nine instruments. The Rosetta mission will orbit 67P/C-G for 17 months and is designed to complete the most detailed study of a comet ever attempted. The mission is controlled from the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC), in Darmstadt, Germany.
